France and Spain Ready to Quarrel Over a
Division of Morocco.
Special to the Indianapolis journal.
LONDON, Oct. 4.-Ths death Of the Sultan
Muley Hassan. of Morocco, is an event from
which the future historian may date important
movements in southwestern Europe. While
this African potentate lived cared to dis
turb him in his fabulous wealth and valuable
territory. But with his death there have sprung
up rival ambitions between France and Spain,
which bid fair to lead to entertaining complca-
tions. The sudden activity of Spain in sending
feet to the African coast is now said to be due
to the recent receipt at Madrid of information
that France had acquisitive designs upon
port that Morocco was likely to
collapse into state of anarchy emanated
from French sources, and according to rumor it
intended to be the preface to a westward
movement of French colonization toward AL
geria Spain at once determined to forestail
her neighbor by q naval demonstration, which
should effectually discourage such designs. In
this. it is said. the Spanish regency had secret
assurances from Rome that Italy would look
with favor upon action intended to check the
spread of the French power in Africa Italy
emarts at her insignificant territorial showing in
a quarter which, historically considered, should
naturally fall to her. She would much dislike
to see France increase her footing there. Spain,
of course, cannot afford TO let France advance
toward Gibraltar's opposite shore The outcome
is likely to be that France and Spain will each
espouse the cause of one or the other of the dis
putting candidates for the sultanshlp among
Muley Hassan's heirs. The tension between
France and Germany will necessarily cause the
Partisan government to act with caution in any
foreign enterprise, while Spain is free from any
ENHANCEMENT, thus giving her an advantage in
such intrigue importance is given the matter
by the growing feeling throughout Europe that
rich prizes, so long neglected in Africa, now
ripe for the grasping. Germany in the East
England in the South, and France and Spain in
the North seem TO be entering active compe-
tition for the proprietorship of the continent.
